This isn’t just a fork of Nix—this is the work of a team of 10+ people near-constantly since early February. (Technically, us too — but our task is really just enabling others.)
Some serious work has gone into ensuring it improves on upstream without having the regressions that have plagued them last three major versions!
And, since this will matter to some — it’s not a project of the NixOS foundation, but an independent organization that takes its responsibility to its community seriously.
Oh, so from what I see, Aux is responsible for working on the Aux tooling, which is basically Nix CLI fork. And Lix is the operating system itself, including infrastructure and clones of Nix essentials like Nixpkg, Hydra, etc? I could definitely see these folks collaborating with each other.
